Taking the wrong path

It’s not something we often do at GoodGym, but this evening we took the wrong path.

I mean, we literally took the path, dug it up, shovelled it into buckets and wheelbarrowed it off to a storage facility.

They’ve been doing a lot of work in Sydney Gardens in the past couple of years. Installing a wopping new playground, loads of other grounds work, Network Rail are still working on some walls alongside the railway, and a little path has been installed by the little temple structure at the top end of the park next to the tennis courts.

Only the path was put in the wrong place, and doesn’t go anywhere!

So Friends of Sydney Gardens have asked us to dig it up for them - they felt it was a stretch too far for their “regular” park volunteers…

The path itself was easy enough to dig up, but needed to be taken the full length of the park, bucketload by bucketload, all the way down to the storage yard round the back of the Holborne Museum.

Between us we managed to get about half of the path moved… but have left a bit for the rest of you lucky people to have another go at in a couple of weeks time!

Enjoy!!
